Future Junior ISS Engineer , I am currently wrapping up my Master's Degree in Computer Science at the University of La Réunion (expecting to graduate soon !). I approach tech and cybersecurity like a massive playground where there's always something new to take apart.
Right now, I'm ready for an immediate move to Paris, London or US.
- 💼 Work-Study Developer @ CAF de La Réunion : I built "ODI" from scratch, a secure PHP/SQL intranet app to centralize travel expenses for over 700 agents. I made sure to lock it down with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to protect sensitive data.
- 🎓 I got my CompTIA Security+ certification, having already snagged the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate in 2025.
When I'm not coding for the CAF, I spend a lot of time hunting for vulnerabilities in sandbox environments:
-
🏆 TryHackMe: I am currently in the global Top 3%!
-
🛡️ Blue Team (Defense): I love diving into Splunk logs (SIEM), correlating events, and building detection use cases to hunt threats.
-
⚔️ Red Team (Offense): I practice web pentesting against the OWASP Top 10 using toys like Burp Suite and Metasploit.
*Languages & Scripting: Python, Bash, PowerShell, SQL, PHP. *OS: Linux (Kali, Ubuntu, Debian), macOS, Windows. *Security: Nmap, Wireshark, Burp Suite (not the pro version yet...), sqlmap, and more... *The little bonus: I have a strong mastery of generative AI tools and LLMs 🤖.
After spending loads of hours in CTFs, I decided it was time for me to go to the next level. I now participate in some VDPs, and I already found a critical SQLi vuln in a local e-commerce site.

⭐ Fun fact: I have a strong eye for detail and I love breaking down complex tech jargon so everyone can understand the real impact of a security incident.
